Tbe writer thinks he would pick up his

would for the hopes of a reward. .
Several cattle have died m this , neisrU-

the winter.
Dr. L. C. Rice of Chicago, has made
propositions to his brother L. Rico of
this place, to open a grocery store at
Brady station.. It certainly would be a
good thing for us as we now have to go to
Gothenburg fifteen miles, or to North
Platte twenty live miles, to get our sup
plies. You may have some doubt when we
say that the winds in this part have been
exceedingly hard this past fall and winter.
So much so that it has taken barbed wire
from the posts and carried it for a mile.
Of course it was the winds, what else
could it be. But it was not the wind that
made the boy's pony go at the rate of a
mile in 2:40, it was dad's long whip.

TRADE AND LABOR NOTES.
The Brotherhood of carpenters have
now 350 local unions, which is double the
number it had in August, 188G. Nino
were added in October.
The Leavenworth Coal Company has
giveu the miners their demand of an In
crease of one cent a bushel and a check
weighman. The patents of the stylographic pen,
the telephone the sewing machine, the
gimlet screw and the ruber pencil tip
have netted their inventors enormous
fortunes.
Four new railroads lines are being
built in Arkansas, two of which will be
open for traffic iu the spring. Their
building has led to a great deal of land
speculation already.
The process of manufacturing gas
from water at Los Angeles, California, is
a magnificent success. Its bright, steady
light has been pronounced a great im
provement over electricity.
The misers throughout the Western
States are preparing to hold a convention
at Pittsburg to arrange a scale of wages
to be paid in the various districts
through-out the country from and after
May 1st.
Canada makes about $150,000 in value
of pottery, though it consumes $2,000,000
worth annually. There are only two
potteries, both at St Johns, Province of
Quebec, aud their product is of cheaper
descriptions.
The Barbers' Association does not at
tempt to regulate wages, but has been of
great benefit to the craft in securing a re
duction of the hours of labor, the abolition
of Sunday work and the adoption of
equitable shop rules.
A pound of ten-penny cut nails will do
as much work as two pounds of wire
nails. Taking the average of all cut nails
they are worth nearly double as much as
the wire nails, according to tests made
at the Watertown Government; arsenal.
A great many new lines of business
heretofore confined to the East have, dur
ing tho past two or three years, been
moving West. A Western newspaper
claims that more cloaks and suits are
made in Chicago now than in any other
city in the country. All kinds of manu
facturing are springing up throughout the
Wrest
The 3Iissouri Pacific is reported to have
decided upon the construction of a new
line through the southeastern portion of
Colorado and the southwestern portion of
Kansas, which will enable it to obtain a
portion of the coal traffic originating at
and around Trinidid, Col. Surveyors are
preparing to locate the route, and graders
are likely to speedily follow them.
Manufacturing towns are springing up
all over the vast region west of tho Mis
sissippi, and there is a great scarcity of
material in man' of them. Labor ia in
demand to hurry along building opera
tions, and there is no appearance of a
surplus of labor anywhere in the south
west. Mechanics are earning very good,
wages, and instead of returning East for
the winter they expect to remain where
they are.
Industrial enterprise seems to be gain
ing courage in the South as the season
progresses. - A new silk factory is to be
erected at Wadesboro, a woolen factory at
Fayette, a cotton factory at Abbeyville, S.
C, and several furniture factories. A
dozen or more cotton gins are projected
in Georgia, and even in Florida a good
deal of manufacturing capital is finding
employment. The same activity is seen
in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana.
The best information to be had con
cerning next year's probabilities is the
work of all kinds will be abundant- No
changes in the hours of labor or its wages
are anticipated. Employers believe that
no extreme steps will be taken unless an
attempt shall bo made to equalize the
rates of wages in different branches of
trade. There is a possibility of trouble
with the brick makers, but efforts are to
be made this wiuter to adjust all differ
ences. Married In a Snowdrift.
Olathe, Kan., special to Kansas City
Times : S. R. BrowD, a prominent lawyer
of Havana, 111., after securing a divorce
from his wife some time ago, fell in love
with Miss Amanda Walker, who has been
a clerk in his office, and both were desir
ous of welding their love by matrimony,
but the mother and brother of the young
lady were sternly opposed to the wedding
taking place, and for six weeks a guard
was kept over the girl. Finally, she was
sent to an uncle living about seven miles
west of this cit She came about three
weeks ago, and at once began writing to
Brown, apprising him of her whereabouts.
He wrote to her. but she. never received
any of his letters.
Last Thursday Brown came here and
found all of his letters in the postoffice in
this city. He went out to her uncle's
farm and saw her, but was given distinct
ly to understand that he was to give up
his intentions of marrying tho girl. She
told him that Saturday afternoon she
would go to a church in the neighborhood
to assist in the decorations for Christmas.
Brown then procured his license, and
taking Probate Judge Allen in a carriage
Saturday night started for his betrothed .
Upon arriving at the church the driver
was sent in to get the girl. She came out
and got into the carriage, when the party
started for Olathe.
The team, however, became frightened
and ran away, but the driver finally pulled
them up in a snow drift without anv
damage. The marriage was then per
formed while the carriage remained in
the drift, after which the newly made
wife was taken back to the church, while
Mr. Brown came to Olathe. It is expect
ed that the opposition will soon give in to
the inevitable, although it is said the
mother had threatened to kill the girl, and
the brother had promised to perform tho
like service for Brown.

females convicted was enly 61,359. It is
noteworthy that there were seven convic
tions among unmarried females: among
married persons the proportion was 3.5
to one, while widows and widowers were
convicted in equal proportion.
Among unmarried persons the criminal
tendencies of the sexes become more and
more equalized withh increasing age.
Thus, while among persons of eighteen
to forty years the male criminals are to
the female as eight to one among persons
of forty to fifty years the proportion falls
to four to one, and among persons above
fifty years old it is three to one.
Tho reverse is the case with married
persons, for the difference in criminality
is here lest between the agea of eighteen
and twenty-five years. From th$ twenty
fifth to the sixtieth year the pronortionis
four to one, and then crime increases to
the disadvantage of the males.
Considering female crime alone, it is
found that the most criminal age is from
thirty to forty years, and the next to it is
that forty to fifty. Statistics for the years
18S2 to 1885 show that female crime pre
vails most in the duchy of Anhalt, the
principality of Schwarzburg-Sondershaus-en,
and the kingdom of Saxony, and the
least criminality is found in the govern
ment district of Munsterat Wurtemburg
district of Waldshut.
The Hanlon brothers are among the
most remarkable people on the stage.
There are only three of them left now.
The oldest brother was killed by a fall
from the trapeze. Another was Injured
so badly that he died several months after
in an asylum. Fred died last year in
Europe of consumption. Now there is
left William, who is with the "Fantasma"
company, who has "Le Voyage en
Suisse," and George. William Is about
forty and Edward thirty -eight. George
has full control of the finances of both
companies. Every week a statement of
what has been done is sent him. At the
end of the season the profits are divided
into three parts, and each of the brothers
nets his third. It does not make any
difference if tho receipts of one company
far exceed those of the other, the dividend
is the same. They have always followed
that custom and have never had a differ
ence In their lives.
From information we have received we
conclude the railroad company are not
gaining anything by neglecting to furnish
the people of Anselmo with coal. There
is none to be obtained there. -But tbe
company has a good supply in their bins,
and the agent says he has no authority to
and can't sell it. Like g"ood sensible peo
ple our friends up their very quietly, in
broad day light, just simply go and help
themselves whenever they want to. New
that course, in our estimation, is perfectly
proper, and if we were ever called to sit
as a juror in judgement on their offense
we will surely be prompt in handing in
our verdict, of "not guilty" before the
evidence is offered. It is said to be a
comical sight to witness rich and poor,
bankers, merchants and homesteaders all
alike loaded with sacks of coal oo their
backs plodding through the snow drifts.

Queen Anne architecture having about
had its day along with the Renaissance, as
a fashionable craze, if the phrase be
allowed, we are now threatened with a
Gothic invasion, It has made its appear
ance with more or less ostentation, in
sundry localities up town, it must be con
fessed, not always in a form that harmon
izes with a critical or exacting taste.
However, we may improve in this with
further experience. The most that can
be said about it in the meanwhile is that
it is some sense a grateful relief not only
from the Queen Anno and tbe Renaissance
but other style so unique, not to say
grotesque or nondescript, that it would
puzzle the proverbial Philadelphia mem
ber of the bar to classify them with any
degree of accuracy. But ambitious archi-
t3cts in their striving for novel or start
ling effects must beware of pushing the
Gothic to extremes otherwise it will be
difficult to distinguish between .the
"palatial" private residence and the
average church or chapel. New York
Letter to the Philadelphia Ledger.
Crime Among: German Women.
Statistics just issued by the German
imperial statistical officer regarding the
prevalance of crime during the year 1885
show that the number of female criminals
was in that j'ear four or five times smaller
than that of males. During 1885, 281,788
males were convicted of miscellaneous in
fractions of the law while the number of

where she rales by common consent. "In March
last, when six months old, oar baby was taken
down with what the physicians called "bron
chitis" (an ordinary cold) and was very sick for
two weeks; she seemed to be filled deep in the
chest with phlegm which we were unable to loos
en; she conld not lie down at all, bat had to bo
held upright else it caused her to cough severely;
the physician did not give her any relief, although
tho prescriptions wero changed every day and
sometimes twice a day; this treatment was con
tinued about ten days and we finally determined
to try a bottle of Chamberlain's Congh Remedy.
We obtained a bottle and after giving a few doses
she was relieved, breathing easier and throwing
off the phlegm and getting to sleep, getting well
in a few days, and we believe we owe her life to
the nso of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Oar
oldest girl is subject to croap and has had several
severe atticks but the Cough Remedy has brought
